Artists Maria Antelman and Jenny Calivas present on their photographs currently on view at AIPAD member gallery Yancey Richardson through July 11. Moderated by curator Katerina Stathopoulou, and with an introduction by Yancey Richardson. Maria Antelman’s unique approach to photography in which her lyrical and experimental approach to imagery and montage is combined with a sculptural sensibility and attention to the photograph as an object in three dimensions. Through her merging and splicing together of images—those from the body and from nature—Antelman endeavors to re-mystify our understanding of the natural world.
Combining photography and performance, Jenny Calivas produces her photographs using analog processes and experimental darkroom techniques, prioritizing embodied ways of thinking and making. In photographs which show her partially or almost completely submerged in the landscape, Calivas explores the relationship between the female body and a feminized understanding of the Earth, while also reflecting on the power of looking and the vulnerability of being looked at.
